In Re: Checking Account Overdraft Litigation, No. 1:09-md-2036-JLK

Settlement with u.s. bank

Welcome

Welcome to the U.S. Bank overdraft settlement support website. This website has been established to provide class members with important information regarding a $55 million Settlement that has been reached in a class action about the order in which U.S. Bank posted Debit Card Transactions to customer accounts, and the alleged effect the posting order had on the number of Overdraft Fees charged to account holders. U.S. Bank maintains that there was nothing wrong about the posting process used and that it has not violated any laws.

Settlement Update: September 14, 2016

Additional Distribution: September 14, 2016

On August 15, 2016, the Court entered an Order approving a distribution of the remaining Settlement funds to certain identifiable Settlement Class Members. Specifically, the Order directs that this distribution be made to those identifiable Settlement Class Members for whom the Settlement Administrator has a current valid mailing address and (1) who participated in the initial distribution from the Settlement by either receiving an account credit or cashing the mailed check they received from the Settlement; and (2) whose additional distribution, based upon the provisions in the Order and the formula in the Settlement Agreement, is at least $5.00.

The Settlement Administrator mailed the additional distribution checks on September 14, 2016, to the Settlement Class Members meeting the above requirements.

Please note: These checks have an issue date of September 14, 2016, and will become void after 60 days, on November 14, 2016. After November 14, 2016, these checks cannot be deposited or cashed. If you receive a September 2016 check from this Settlement, please cash or deposit it immediately.

If you need to request a check reissue for any reason, your request must be received by the Settlement Administrator no later than October 7, 2016.

If you have questions regarding this additional distribution, please visit the Frequently Asked Questions page on this website or contact the Settlement Administrator by calling 1-888-398-8207.

United States District Court For The Southern District Of Florida

If You Paid Overdraft Fees to U.S. Bank,

You May be Eligible for a Payment from a Class Action Settlement.

A federal court authorized this notice. This is not a solicitation from a lawyer.

· A $55 million Settlement has been reached in several class action lawsuits about the order in which U.S. Bank National Association (“U.S. Bank”) posted debit card transactions to consumer deposit accounts, and the effect the posting order had on the number of overdraft fees the bank charged its account holders. U.S. Bank maintains there was nothing wrong about the posting process used. The Court has not decided which side is right.

· Current and former holders of U.S. Bank consumer deposit accounts may be eligible for a payment from the Settlement Fund.

· The Settlement offers payments to current and former U.S. Bank customers who paid overdraft fees as a result of U.S. Bank posting debit card transactions in order from highest to lowest dollar amount during the Class Period applicable to the states in which customers opened their U.S. Bank deposit accounts.

If you are eligible for a payment based on overdraft fees charged during the applicable Class Period, you do not have to do anything to receive a payment. Your payment will be made automatically by either mailed check or electronic payment to your U.S. Bank account if the Court approves the Settlement and it becomes final.

Exclude Yourself

Get no benefits from the Settlement. This is the only option that allows you to participate in any other lawsuit against U.S. Bank about the claims in this case.

Object

Write to the Court if you don’t like the Settlement.

Go to a Hearing

Ask to speak in Court about the fairness of the Settlement.

Do Nothing

You will still receive any automatic payment to which you are entitled, and you will give up your right to participate in further litigation against U.S. Bank about the claims in this case.

· These rights and options—and the deadlines to exercise them—are explained in the Notice.

· The Court in charge of this case still has to decide whether to approve the Settlement. If it does, and any appeals are resolved, benefits will be distributed to those who qualify. Please be patient.

The information on this page is only a short summary of your rights and options. For more detailed information about your rights and options, please review the Notice. You may also review the Settlement Agreement, which provides comprehensive information about the Settlement Class Members' rights and options.
